any rear end for 2k or less for stock power?
looking to purchase a rear end far around 1500-2k that doesn't need a new driveshaft (can bolt in as delivered). car will never see more than stock power & it is not driven hard or taken to the strip. 99' trans am m6. --- seems no matter how you configure an s60 or other rear ends, once you enter all specs to have them properly fit in the vehicle they come out to 2800-3300. if i could find a drop in direct bolt in for 2k i would be more than happy.

A direct bolt-in rear for no hard driving, no track use, no additional power - seems like another stock rear would be the most cost-effective answer. Even with an M6, a healthy stock rear should have no problems lasting a very long time under those conditions.

Wheel hop can kill them real fast etc but for your application, a good stock rebuild sounds ideal. Best wishes and luck with new rear.
PS - it is nice to have an aftermarket one and not have to worry much about it. I like the Hawk's Motorsports 8.8 and mine have held up well but that's going to be over 2K
